Scottish Cup v Alloa - Preview & Matchday

Stolen from Keith McGillvary but this photo simply needs to be shared.

What a day out. Good wee sing song in The Thistle where the fans were joined by the Chairman and had a good chat.

Don't really remember much of the game apart from the goals but a cracking result in the end as Alloa play really good football. Limbs AOTS in the away end when Trafford rose like a salmon to head in the winner.

Another belting #CaleyAway day out.

From the highlights have just noticed that Aaron scored one and made two.  Well done to that man!!

Draw tonight, here's the numbers

[Yngwie]

Didn’t know until yesterday that BSC Glasgow groundshare with Alloa, so there is the possibility of going to the same ground 2 rounds in a row. I’d be happy with that one.

Someone wake me up when they actually do the draw, aye

[Yngwie]

Home to Livi.

Boring draw. Not worth the near hour or so of garbage beforehand...

Winnable game...

Winnable, definitely.

Still could be if we draw

Would have preferred Ross County at home....................but any home tie in a cup competition is not to be sneezed at. Wicki claims their highest transfer payment was £60K to ICT for Barry Wilson. Ironically they are over the bridge on the 5th February.

Dearly hope not, unless it's to get a replay at a semi full greyskull, or potato bowl then a draw can gtf!

Need to keep our games before any possible playoffs to a minimum.

Its our main priority this year.

Good to get a home draw and it could be a lot worse than Livi.  It won't be a tie they fancy but they will be favourites.  They are 5th in the Premiership and are there on merit.  They are a well organised and extremely hard working side.  We will need to match them on those attributes and hope our flair players can unlock their defence.  It should be a good game.

[RiG]

It's a rubbish draw. The ICT support will be poor and Livi won't bring many fans with them. If we get even half the crowd we did the last time we played each other in the Scottish Cup I'll be surprised.

Full draw

Aside from the BSC Glasgow v Dundee United or Hibs tie that must be one of the dullest Scottish Cup draws in recent years?

Used to work with one of their players and been to a couple games. They used to Share with Junior side Maryhill, after they got kicked out they were struggling to find another team to groundshare. They have a very poor fan base and playing out of Alloa doesn’t help.

I bet that Ross County would have loved to have been drawn away to us too!

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

Bring back Rod Stewart.

[Alan Simpson]

Winnable tie chuffed with that 1! Tho predicting a dull as dishwater atmosphere!

[tm4tj]

No a great weekend for you bro. Big Jordan scoring, Storey subbed and Charlie scoring the winner. Word on the street is you're no a happy bunny.

Rageeen brother....

Haha by pure no of games big Js bound to get the odd goal sounds like it was Traffs good game of the season like dufc in the cup last year fair play to the old Mountie! Pretty sure Robbo went tactical by taking of the magic man can't be going in 2 important league business without the main man! But your right no a happy bunny had Miles on as 1st scorer cost me a £10!
